Silje Nergaard

Here is another album which proves that those long lockdowns we were all facing since spring of last year, also led to some very positive, creatively effective outcomes.

Norwegian singer Silje Nergaard explains on her website that she had to clear her head through daily walks around her neighborhood and that she started to “fantasize about the kind of stories which were occurring in these houses. Who lived there – what kind of lives did they lead?”.

The result of those fantasies is a 14-track collection of beautifully told stories, wrapped in a subtle and vulnerable production with lots of little things to explore, like her amazing vocal arrangements.
